If you have any problem sourcing it give me a shout. we can supply it to required size or as a fully cut motor plate. cheers David Title: Re: Motor plates Post by: StrokerMcDell on September 17, 2012, 09:17:23 am How thick are they
Do you need to extend the input shaft for an ally motor plate Cheers Title: Re: Motor plates Post by: Red Rooster on September 17, 2012, 09:51:44 am Everything we have ever made is 1/4 of an inch thick as per rules.they where for v8's not V8's but the thickness is the same.
The input shaft should be fine. there are bits to be gained by modifying the bellhowsing if not.
